retirement party

Career-ending sendoff event

A retirement party is a social gathering held to honor someone leaving the workforce, typically after a long career.

Coworkers, friends, and family celebrate the retiree's contributions and wish them well: The office threw her a retirement party after thirty years with the company.

These events often include speeches, gifts, and reminiscences about the person's career.
